Therapy for Children and Young Adults
Being a teenager today means navigating more than just growing pains. Academic stress, shifting social dynamics, identity exploration, and the emotional chaos of adolescence can leave teens feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or lost. At Silver Therapy Group, we provide therapy for adolescents in NYC that offers a steady, compassionate space for teens to process what they’re going through and build skills that support their emotional wellbeing. Whether they’re dealing with anxiety, depression, inattention, family tension, or something harder to name, therapy helps teens feel more seen and less stuck.
Our therapists specialize in developmentally-informed approaches tailored to the needs of adolescents. We meet teens where they are—sometimes that means talk therapy, other times it includes more creative, experiential tools to help them open up and stay engaged. We often integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and emotion regulation techniques to help teens manage mood swings, navigate peer relationships, and gain confidence in their ability to cope. Above all, we create a space that feels safe, honest, and nonjudgmental—so they can be themselves without pressure or performance.
We also recognize that teens are part of a larger system. Therapy often includes collaboration with parents or caregivers—either through periodic check-ins or more structured family work—to ensure that growth in the therapy room translates into real change at home. We support families in strengthening communication, understanding generational dynamics, and learning how to support their teen without stepping on their independence. When teens and caregivers feel like they’re on the same team, everything gets easier.

Therapy helps teens and adolescents find clarity, confidence, and connection amidst the turbulence of growing up.
Whether your teen is struggling quietly or acting out loudly, therapy offers a space to pause, reflect, and build resilience. At Silver Therapy Group, we’re committed to helping young people grow into their full selves with confidence, self-awareness, and care. If you’re curious about how therapy could help your teen, reach out to schedule a consultation—we’re here to support the next chapter of their growth.
